OK, so this new object spotted by the Chinese allegedly is 22.5 metres by 13 metres floating in the ocean. Why does the picture in the story "New information...Malaysian Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein shows a note from the Chinese ambassador informing him of new satellite images of possible MH370 debris in the Indian Ocean. Picture: AFP Source: AFP" show a piece of paper stating 20 metres long and 30 metres WIDE??????
Chinese whispers. The amount of info bouncing around from various sources is probably being distorted or sensationalised by the time it hits the pages of the news.

On another note, I would of thought any "wooden pallets" in the cargo would be smashed to smithereens on impact.
